You know in a sense I do agree that some players have a hard time giving Manu credit for his solid performances in the playoffs.

But Marcus Camby did give Ginobili credit after Game 3. So it's not completely correct to say he hasn't gotten any credit from his opponents (non International of course).



Even Melo did give some respect despite his alleged at ude problems.



Other than that I think Nash gave him credit (surprise surprise it was him and no one else on the Suns).

Well, and that's fair. I hate to generalize and will admit that I fell into that trap without first thinking to find out if anyone was an exception to the rule. Funny that Manu got respect from Nuggets players, while their coach was blasting Manu and their writers were ridiculing the dude. Then again, Camby comported himself with total class in that series, so it doesn't really surprise me that he would acknowledge Manu's game.

I still think Sean has a point.

so manu is technically Italian. we could go on an on about this. dont forget about the german irish immigration to mexico. you have to know one thing, black people & mexicans dont catagorize everyone. you're either black, latino, or white. i dont care if you're black, you're black, i dont care if you're light skin, look white, whatever, you're black. if you're german, russian, native american, you're white. really if you look at it, manu doesnt look like latino guy. he looks white. so let me see, we shouldnt descibe someone of their color. so i gonna say the dude who is darker than everyone, that guy. the guy with a nice tan, doesnt burn. or the light pastey guy...

quit being overly sensitive people.

Here's a thought, maybe sean just wasnt paying attention. he might have messed up. maybe he meant foreign player, euro player, south american, i dont know, he looks white, so he said white. leave it at that.

one thing straight though, who the came up with the name HISPANIC. there is no ing country of HISPANIA. always wondered that.

Whoever came up with classifying humans by color is an idiot.
Obviously, it's more complicated than that!

Tsk Tsk

I'm a part of the human race. American, I might add. Need I say more?
